He got gerrymandered out so last week he claimed he was running as an Independent to not lose his seat. Either way, he’s losing his seat. His officially registering is pathetic, frenetic theater. He’s still a Republican. He still has the same voting record. He and every Republican must be held responsible for what they have done, or meekly allowed to have done. Epstein, Affordability, Regime Change and Foreign Wars, where is my beautiful house must be repeated over and over again.
